Real Grass Fed domestic lamb kabobs and kafta! Everything is good and lots of veggie options. Very clean! Kitchen sparkles.

They also have an excellent AYCE lunch buffet quite reasonably priced!

The lamb kusharia was absolutely fantastic! I had this last night, and can't stop thinking about when I can go back. The atmosphere is delightful, and the specialty drinks are beautiful, delicious and well priced.

Wonderful service and food! Huge portions; worth every cent. Thanks for making me feel so welcome.

This Palestinian place is amazing! We ordered a couple of chicken dishes and also a lamb kabob tower. All the meats were cooked perfectly and accompanied by delicious and flavorful rice or potato dishes. Ali, who owns the restaurant with his wife, was so kind and made us feel right at home. We had great conversation with him and learned a lot too. If you haven’t been here you have to try it, it’s fantastic!

WOW! This place is amazing on every axis! The atmosphere is lovely, with great colors and lighting. We were served by the owner Ali himself, who was incredibly hospitable and made us feel like family. We got the lamb tower, which you MUST order if you like lamb. It was succulent and cooked to a perfect medium/medium well temperature. We had two different chicken dishes: the chicken kusharia, and the chicken muthawama, both of which were seasoned to perfection and very moist. I especially loved the bed of potatoes that came with the chicken muthawama, as they were smothered in the juices of the chicken 🤤. Don’t miss this place!

Need catering? Think Kabob! They made us look like the most amazing hosts ever! Highly recommend Kabob for your next party. Rave reviews from all our guests. Sorry, didn't take pictures - we were too busy digging in.

I came to this restaurant with my dadand to my surprise nobody was here at 11am. We've been waiting outside the front door for over 15 minutes and it's 11:15 now. We called and knocked on the door and nobody answered. I was very excited to try this place out but this seems to be a trending thing with your business. No show on open

I went for dinner at Kebab with my family. I was impressed that the sign out front says "vegan & vegetarian options". On the menu, I was pleased to see there is a large section that is vegan by default, including ALL appetizers - much of it is clearly marked gluten free as well. We ordered the Hummus as an appetizer, it was easily the highlight of the meal - very flavorful, topped with appealing veggies and served with delicious soft pita bread. Then I had the Hot Mezza Plate - the roasted cauliflower, falafel, and fried potatoes were all fresh-tasting and very flavorful. The only problem was that everything I ordered was drenched in oil. This made it much less appealing and Im sure that so much oil is simply not conducive to good health.

This is now one of my favorite restaurants in Portland! Wow, I heard of this from someone else's post online, and so I went with my family. I had expected it to be a casual place, but it's really nice inside! You could definitely show up in sweatpants and a hoodie, but you could also dress up and go for a date or a special occasion. I was also surprised that the prices were so low for such a nice environment and such high quality ingredients (organic, local, grassfed, Halal), especially given recent inflation! We ordered delicious, inexpensive cocktails that came in these big carafes, and we were like: Are they losing money on this?

This was hands-down the best falafel I've ever had. My partner and child don't like falafel that much, and they even liked it - a lot. The hummous was delicious, and the babaganouj was perfect! My family ordered lamb, and they said it might have been the best they've ever had, and I had chicken, and omg, we are going back!

The family was warm and welcoming, and it was OBVIOUS this is a family-run place and they do it with love. Please go support this restaurant! You will not be disappointed!

With so many good Middle Eastern restaurants in Portland, there’s no reason to try this one. Greek salad was filled with 10” long field greens ( not torn) , chickpeas and way too much Italian dressing; falafel seemed to be a ball of uncooked shredded straw that we couldn’t even chew. To Go order did not come with silverware or napkins ☹️ $$ in the trash

So I walked in and waited at the front door for about 5 min before being greeted and told I could sit anywhere. I was then asked if I had been here before and after replying no was pointed towards the buffet and told it was a buffet ale and to just go ahead and start before the server quickly walked away.
Was not offered a menu or any drink options, just water. The food selection is very, very limited with 5 dishes, 3 chicken, a lamb, and a vegetarian option. Then a soup and small salad bar.
Will not be coming back. I am very tempted to ask for a refund....
I don't know why this place is getting 5 start reviews... maybe the lunch buffet is just not recommended? None of the pictures taken by others resembled my experience besides the atmosphere... i couldn't even get a kabob at Kabob...
